Well this is the start of our month in France . Parked up in the aire at Nunq - Hautecote. 6 € a night including wifi Just as well as I cocked up getting the wrong SIM card for our Huawei router thingy. Will have to try and find an orange store in Amiens tomorrow . What a muppet.

Staying at the ille de offard site at Saumur from Monday and a slow trundle to the site at Chinon for the following week. Decided we want to have long spells of rest with the odd mad bit of driving rather than the other way around like last time.

Weather here a bit overcast and coolish. No thunderstorms though

Stocked up with supplies on the way down so a good traditional French breakfast awaits

Catch you all later

Enjoy

If it’s long spells of rest you are after and a riverside setting, I can recommend the site or Aire at Azay le rideau. Lovely setting, peaceful surroundings.

All the best

We’ve been over since 2nd May.
Now down at St Antonin Noble Val, on river Aveyron been here 4 nights.
Just been pottering doing between 50 & 130 kms per distance, we haven’t moved every day.
Weather was glorious up to about 28th May then turned but still warm & humid, we’ve had thunderstorms and some rain but mostly dry days!
Bumped into floods from river Garonne & canal so had to alter course & Averyon very full & fast which is a shame because in normal circumstances it’s a nice one to swim in!
Off to today to pastures new!

Thanks for asking @Baileysbus, we're surviving after a shaky start. Just as I was boarding the ferry the dreaded "what's burning " question arose. Worried sick on the journey expecting the mh to burst into flames and sink the ship.
Arrived at Cite Europe and met my hero @Oscar who made safe a burnt out wire on a circuit board!
Now heading towards Honfleur instead of the next ferry home.

 

[Oscar]

Good to hear you're on the move, hope you and the gang have a fab holiday x

 

[Wendo55]

If it wasn't for you it'd have been a very short trip! Eternally grateful!
